Opportunity Summary:
The U.S. Department of State, through the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor (DRL), released a discretionary grant opportunity titled "DRL Request Statement of Interest on Forensic Assistance to Address Legacies of Gross Human Rights Violations." The notice is structured as a Request for Statements of Interest (RSOI), meaning DRL is first asking organizations to submit a concise Statement of Interest (SOI) describing a proposed project concept and the organization s fit to carry it out, rather than jumping immediately to a full application. The focus area is forensic assistance connected to addressing past episodes of gross human rights violations, which commonly includes efforts that help societies document abuses, clarify what happened to victims, and support accountability and truth seeking processes.
The opportunity is issued under Funding Opportunity Number DRLA DRLAQM 16 029 and is administered by the Department of State (DOS). The award mechanism is a grant, and it is categorized under a broader funding activity area labeled "Other" (with additional clarification typically provided in the full notice). The CFDA listing associated with the opportunity is 19.345, which corresponds to DRL related programming. The announcement indicates an award ceiling of up to 450,000 dollars, setting the maximum amount that could be requested or awarded under this specific call, although the number of expected awards is not specified in the provided data.
Eligibility is listed as "Others," with the note that additional information on eligibility would be contained in the full solicitation text. In practice, DRL opportunities often seek capable non governmental organizations, civil society groups, research or technical organizations, and other entities with relevant expertise, but the exact eligible applicant types and any restrictions would depend on the detailed eligibility section in the official announcement.
Key dates show the opportunity was created and posted on November 12, 2015, with a closing date of December 18, 2015 (the original and current closing dates match, indicating no extension in the data provided).
